2. Cut down on caffeine
While it's tempting to reach for coffee to combat those afternoon slumps, it can increase your blood pressure, cause headaches and lead to insomnia. Instead of your morning cappuccino, opt for a herbal tea or a good old glass of water.
3. Find a sleep routine that works for you
Establish a regular pattern of sleep with regular bedtimes and wake-up times - even at the weekend. Sleeping for six hours or less can cause headaches, so getting the right amount of beauty sleep will help give you that radiant complexion you're looking for.
4. Limit your alcohol intake
Alcohol causes dehydration, which can make the skin look dull and waxy. Ditch the booze and you’ll notice your complexion brightening in no time. Not only that but you’ll also see you concentration levels, work performance and sleeping habits improving. A dry month is a great way to kick off a new year with a healthy shine!
5. Practice mindfulness
Mindfulness is increasingly popular and there is a lot to be said for being present in the given moment and enjoying the sights, sounds and sensations that are part of it. Whether it's spending a relaxing half an hour with an adult colouring book, or sticking in your headphones for a guided meditation, taking the time for you will give you a glow in no time.
